- The world is watching what happens in Hong Kong. Australians are watching. And we expect people’s rights and freedoms to be respected. @QandA #StandWithHongKong
00:00 - Our government made a choice today: It will not lead to peace, nor the release of hostages. The Albanese government has backed a Palestinian state without requiring a recognition of Israel’s right to exist, nor its safety & security, nor the release of hostages.
- Proud to #StandWithHongKong. Strange fact: The last time (2003) I protested in #HongKong I was wearing a pink polo as well.
- Proud to stand with #HongKong on the streets and proud to stand with Hong Kong in the nation’s Parliament with @SenPaterson . The people have made their views very clear today. #HongKongElection
- I am concerned about the increasing escalation of commentary from the former Member for Goldstein that is trending toward bringing the AEC’s count into question and needlessly seeding questions about the AEC’s processes.
- Between Australia, Hong Kong and United Kingdom elections the official movie title must be “2019: Liberal Democracy Strikes Back”. How good is #Freedom, #Responsibility & #Decentralisation! Snaps to all those who stood up for principles against the emptiness of socialism.
- On the train. It pulled up at Bentleigh. A bloke wearing a black tee and hat was getting off the train, held his phone up and pointed at me. He said “Tim Wilson. Zionist scumbag”. He then cowardly got off the train. I calmly responded “I’m quite proudly Zionist, thank you”.
- This morning, surrounded by the supporters of our incredible campaign, I declared victory in Goldstein on their behalf. There are many lessons from the campaign that has been run.
- Another day in China’s ‘peaceful rise’ ...
- The prolonged Victorian lockdown is degrading & dehumanising. Victorians are being humiliated by their own State government in front of the nation because they neither trust nor respect Victorians to do the right thing.
- People shouldn’t be arrested for wanting democracy - the right to have a say in the future of their nation - nor face trial for wanting to be free. Proud to stand with colleague Andrew Hastie MP to support #Save12HKYouths
00:00 - Extremely welcome to hear @ScottMorrisonMP confirm Cabinet consideration of pathways for Hong Kong liberal democrats to find safe haven in Australia ...
- The 11th of March is a special day. It the day after @rpbolger’s birthday. The day before mine. And now and forever it is our wedding anniversary. #BolgerWilson2018
